Abstract
Background: Frozen shoulder or Adhesive Capsulitis is characterized by painful, gradual loss of active and passive shoulder motion resulting from fibrosis and contracture of the joint capsule.1Frozen shoulder can be divided into primary and secondary forms. The Spencer technique is a standardized series of shoulder treatments with broad application in diagnosis, treatment and prognosis. This technique increases pain free range of motion through stretching the tissues, enhancing lymphatic flow and stimulating increased joint circulation. Myofascial therapy direct bodily effects range from alleviation of pain, improvement in ROM. Aim & objective of the study: To analysis & understand Spencer technique on Pain and Range of motion in Periarthritis shoulder. To analysis & understand Myofascial release on Pain and Range of motion in Periarthritis shoulder. To compare the effect of Spencer technique vs myofascial release on Pain and Range of motion in Periarthritis shoulder. Data Analysis and Results: Data analysis and result of this study shows that there is homogeneity of pre intervention variables of pain and ROM of abduction and ROM of extension and ROM of external rotation. There is a statically significant improvement in pain and ROM of abduction, extension and external rotation in patients with p value <0.05 in both control group and experimental group. While comparing both control and experimental group there is a statistically greater improvement in experimental group in which myofascial release is given to the patients in pain and ROM of abduction and extension and external rotation with p value<0.05. Conclusion: It is concluded that there was statistically significant improvement in pain and ROM of abduction and extension and external rotation in Periarthritis shoulder patients of both control group (Spencer technique group) and experimental group (myofascial release group). But there is a greater improvement in experimental group in which myofascial release is given to the patients.
